Heat 8 cups of water in a big pot till boil. Fold in sweet potato cubes, ginger slices and rock sugar, boil in high heat. Once it is boiled, turn to medium high until sweet potatoes are soft (takes about 20 minutes). Add extra ginger juice (optional), leave the lid on for 5 minutes so the sweet potatoes are softer.
